After coming down from the second floor, Lu Changsheng arrived at the first floor to check the items for sale in the shop.

He looked to see if there was anything he wanted.

On this trip, he also wanted to buy a magic artifact drawing pen and some supreme talisman paper and supreme spirit ink.

While at the Third Level Energy Refinement stage, Lu Changsheng had attempted to draw Superior Grade Talismans.

But limited by his cultivation level and talisman making tools, his success rate was very low.

He only drew a dozen or so to carry with him for emergencies.

Not long ago, after breaking through to the Fourth Level Energy Refinement, he tried drawing Superior Grade Talismans again, which was still somewhat difficult.

He could only draw a few simpler Superior Grade Talismans.

And the success rate was only about forty to fifty percent.

For other Talisman Masters, this success rate was already quite remarkable.

But in Lu Changsheng’s view, it was still lacking.

Therefore, he thought of buying a better magic artifact pen, and then some supreme quality talisman paper and spirit ink.

This way, not only could his success rate improve, but he would also be confident in drawing the more challenging Superior Grade Talismans.

Whether he’d sell the talismans was another matter.

At least having more Superior Grade Talismans on hand would give him an extra sense of security.

Otherwise, what would he do if he encountered unforeseen dangers while traveling between Nine Dragons Market and Qingzhu Mountain?

Lu Changsheng began to check the items for sale in the shop.

Most of the talismans for sale were of the lower grade, primarily.

Then there were Basic Talismans and Middle Grade Talismans, as well as a few Superior Grade Talismans.

In addition to Spirit Talismans, the shop didn’t only have drawing pens, talisman paper, and spirit ink, but also some related raw materials and books on talismans.

Then, he looked at the prices of the magic artifact pens, supreme talisman paper, and supreme spirit ink at the talisman making tool counter.

Lower Grade Magical Instrument pens, seventy Spirit Stones.

Middle Grade Magical Instrument pens, two hundred Spirit Stones.

Superior Grade Magical Instrument pens, six hundred Spirit Stones.

Supreme talisman paper comes in different qualities, divided into fine quality and good quality.

Fine quality, fifty Spirit Stones per stack, ten sheets.

Good quality, thirty Spirit Stones per stack, ten sheets.

Supreme spirit ink also comes in different qualities, divided into fine quality and good quality.

Fine quality, fifty Spirit Stones per box.

Good quality, thirty Spirit Stones per box.

“So expensive,” Lu Changsheng said, unable to help clicking his tongue as he looked at the prices.

He had felt quite wealthy before.

But looking at the prices, he suddenly realized he was quite poor, especially poor.

After buying a Middle Grade Magical Instrument pen, he wouldn’t have much left.

“For my current needs, a Middle Grade Magical Instrument pen is enough,” he said.

“Moreover, unlike ordinary pens, a magical instrument pen is very durable, can be used thousands of times, and I don’t need to worry too much about it being damaged,” he added.

Lu Changsheng stroked his chin, planning to purchase a Middle Grade Magical Instrument pen.

After all, such an item could be used for a long time once bought.

As for the price of talisman paper and spirit ink, he thought they were quite reasonable, not too expensive.

After all, a Superior Grade Talisman could sell for thirty to fifty Spirit Stones.

And a Supreme Talisman could sell for more than two hundred Spirit Stones!

However, being able to sell at such prices was also because of the barriers and difficulties involved.

Like Fourth Elder, being a First Grade Top-Level Talisman Master, he only sells three Supreme Talismans per month, also due to the high failure rate.

After deducting the time and material costs, the profit is limited.

Not everyone is like Lu Changsheng, who has a knack for talisman making, as easy as eating and drinking.

“I’m not in a hurry. Right now, I need the Spirit Stones to purchase the materials for the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art. I’ll go to Southwest Street tomorrow to see,” he said.

“I’ll see if there are any materials suitable for the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art and if I can sell some talismans to make some money,” Lu Changsheng mused to himself.

He then asked the shopkeeper, Zhang Shan, about the cost price for items like the magical instrument pens, supreme talisman paper, and spirit ink.

Zhang Shan didn’t hide the information and told the truth.

The cost price for a Lower Grade Magical Instrument pen is forty-three Spirit Stones.

The cost price for a Middle Grade Magical Instrument pen is one hundred and thirty-nine Spirit Stones, and for a Superior Grade Magical Instrument pen, it is five hundred Spirit Stones.

Because the Lu Family didn’t have an Artifact Refiner, these were purchased from other places to sell.

About the talisman paper and spirit ink, fine quality was made by the Lu Family themselves, good quality was both self-made and outsourced using provided materials, and Zhang Shan wasn’t clear about the cost.

After hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded, deciding to take a Middle Grade Magical Instrument pen from the shop at cost price when the time came.

Then, he inquired about the shop’s daily revenue, sales, which talismans sold well, and the prices and quantities of talismans bought from other places, among other things.

Lu Changsheng had an idea in mind.

If he were to be fully responsible for managing the shop in the future, could he possibly sell all the talismans he had through this shop?

For these queries, Zhang Shan responded truthfully, giving Lu Changsheng a good understanding of the Spiritual Talisman Shop.

He learned that the business of the Spiritual Talisman Shop was quite good in Nine Dragons Market, generating several thousand Spirit Stones in revenue each month.

“It seems that the Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop does better business than I imagined,” Lu Changsheng thought to himself after gathering the information.

After chatting with Zhang Shan for a while, Lu Changsheng didn’t continue to ask more questions.

He returned to the third floor’s rest room, found Lu Miaoge still in the Talisman Room, and began to meditate and cultivate.

As dusk approached, Lu Miaoge came out from the Talisman Room.

She told Lu Changsheng that this was the time when they could usually head home.

Although Nine Dragons Market didn’t have a curfew, the place would be much quieter at night.

After all, cultivators still needed to cultivate and rest.

And with Li Shi and Wang Wu living in the shop, they could help keep an eye on things.

Afterward, Lu Miaoge took Lu Changsheng to the Lu Family mansion in the Eastern District.
